The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) on Sunday said over 170,000 polling unit results of the February 25 presidential and National Assembly elections have been uploaded on its Result Viewing Portal (IReV).

The Commission also said the reconfiguration of the Bimodal Voter Registration Systems (BVAS) would be completed by Tuesday in preparation for the March 18 governorship and state assembly elections.

“As at the last time, over 170,000 of those results have been uploaded,” INEC National Commissioner, Festus Okoye, stated on Channels Television’s Sunday Politics.

“As you are aware, we are reconfiguring the BVAS for purposes of the governorship and state assembly elections, and any BVAS that was used for the presidential and National Assembly elections that do not push to the accreditation backend, the data relating to the conduct of the presidential and National Assembly elections will not be reconfigured.

“In fact, the BVAS will not allow itself to be reconfigured or reset if the entire data is not pushed to the accreditation backend.

“I’m sure that by Tuesday when we hope to complete the resettling of the BVAS for the purposes of the governorship and state assembly elections, the results in all the places where elections were conducted would have been pushed to the accreditation backend.”

‘No Party Allowed To Check BVAS’

Okoye said every Nigerian has the constitutional and legal right to protest. However, he said no political party will be allowed to look into the brain of the BVAS or the biometrics of voters.

He said the court judgement that voters could use their temporary voter cards to vote is not applicable for all Nigerians but for the individuals who went to court.

The INEC commissioner also blamed political parties for making polling units “inaccessible” for voters, leading to low turnout at the last polls.

He said INEC learned some “valuable lessons” in the presidential and National Assembly elections, which would be used in the governorship and state assembly polls.

He said serious efforts are being made to rectify challenges with IReV portal ahead of the March 18 polls, adding that the ICT department of the commission knows what to do if there are issues with the uploading of polling unit results on the IReV portal in March 18 polls.

He said political parties deployed more polling unit agents than the number of officials deployed by the Commission and so they monitored their results per polling units.

The INEC commissioner said, “The Electoral Act 2022 makes it clear that every registered political party in conjunction with their candidates have the right to send agents to every polling units in Nigeria. The PDP as a political party deployed a total of 176,588 polling agents. The Labour Party deployed a total of 134,874 polling agents. The NNPP deployed a total of 176,200 while the APC deployed a total of 176,223.

“The commission deployed to 176,666 polling units. So, the political parties deployed more agents to the polling units than the number of polling units that opened. What that means is that each political party got a copy of Form EC 8 which is the polling unit result sheet which is the result sheet that is uploaded into the IReV portal.”

Legal Battle

The IReV and the BVAS are new technologies introduced by the electoral body for the accreditation and electronic transmission of votes for this year’s polls.

At the presidential and National Assembly polls, opposition parties complained bitterly that INEC officials at the polling units were unable to upload election results electronically to the IReV, as stipulated by Section 60 of the Electoral Act 2022. The parties kicked against the manual collation of results and the announcement of winners in the polls.

The electoral body promised to fix the glitches but opposition parties have gone to court to challenge the victory of Bola Tinubu of the All Progressives Congress (APC) who was declared Nigeria’s President-Elect by the electoral umpire.

Last week, a Court of Appeal in Nigeria’s political capital, Abuja granted approval to INEC to reconfigure the BVAS for the governorship and state assembly elections.

The Labour Party (LP) and its presidential candidate Peter Obi had sought an order from the court restraining INEC from tampering with the information in the BVAS machines until the due inspection is conducted and certified true copies (CTC) of them issued.

But on Wednesday, a three-member panel of the court of appeal led by Justice Joseph Ikyegh granted INEC’s request to reconfigure the BVAS machines on the ground that the information on them would be uploaded into the back-end server which cannot be tampered with.

The commission subsequently postponed the governorship and state assembly polls by one week from March 11 to March 18 to allow for the reconfiguration of BVAS machines.

Who cares about fraudulent INEC sef? They should be on the ballot box from now on since they're now a political party.

If they like they can alter the results from the back end server, the rightful winner of the presidential election will still be declared. We don't have any trust in INEC after Mahmood Yakubu colluded with Tinubu to steal the mandate and deceive Nigerians. A new Nigeria must be realised whether mandate thieves like it or not.

How come CBN Governor isn't getting invited by TV stations like INEC officials

Why are you always digressing from the main topic? If you have issues with CBN, you should call them out ....

The electorates are having issues with INEC and they're calling them out to gives answers to their queries...


Also, you people have been accusing Obidients of being vile and uncouth, but almost all the topics on front-page, I've been reading different abuses on Obidients and on Peter Obi as a person.

It's either you attribute this movement to Igbo movement and complain about Igbos doing this and that or you complain about your lands ..

While you throw the shades and abuse a tribe, you get hailed and want everyone to go home and think about your uncouthness... But you won't be able to take it when the same foul languages is thrown at you ...

Many of us supporting Obi are not even from igbo region ... But you lots attribute it to Igbo just to foil the movement!

Thats how they are programmed

That's why we call them urchins

I no longer bother myself with trying to convince urchins on the need for a change in the whole set up of this country.

They are irredeemable, they will reject every reasonable submission that will not support Tinubu's stolen mandate. With time their eyes will clear.

Urchins are best described below👇👇

When zombies counted the result, they counted Tinubu as the winner, so they quickly stopped counting.

Obi prayed and sought the face of God as he ran helter-skelter from Aladura to Moun Zion, seeking for signs and wonders.

God answered Obi's prayer, but the desperate political prostitute must have it his way, so he has gone to court to challenge his own answered prayer.

this is going to be a lot of work, hope the hire enough [url=https://hubforjobs.com/dos-and-don'ts-on-your-first-day-at-work]people to work[/url] on this project and make sure the election go smoothly, we are watching.

Ok

Eye neck.
Bunch of failures.

Problem is thousands are blurred and not readable

A few are pictures of other things not results
E.g Picture of a girl was uploaded as result for one PU

Some have alterations and obvious signs of manipulation

Mumu Eye Neck. See face like rotten eba

Dear Urchin, suffer don reach your side? Wait your principal will soon share agbado as “down payment on the highway to balablu”

I didn't bother to watch the video because this INEC is a big disgrace. I hope crooked Mahmood Yakubu and his bunch of devilish subordinates backed up the BVAS data before reconfiguring the devices as directed by the court.

I don't want to hear that something went wrong when they were backing it up and someone will be apologizing. Wrongdoings must have consequences in this country for it to work.

Is that not in defiance to the court order

Nonsense..

Thieves wiping out foot prints of rigging . No crime against humanity goes scot free

They are going to display another high level of incompetence as they did earlier after all the talk

"The INEC commissioner said, “The Electoral Act 2022 makes it clear that every registered political party in conjunction with their candidates have the right to send agents to every polling units in Nigeria. The PDP as a political party deployed a total of 176,588 polling agents. The Labour Party deployed a total of 134,874 polling agents.

Meaning, if as a political party, your polling unit agents were compromised ...that's your headache.

Naija politics is deep

You is a crook

In this so called rigged election LP won all the vote in south east with almost 97% and it is free and fair from that end!...with the fact that he played a religion and tribal politics trying to divide our darling county we all can see how far he can go in his political mission from South west, North Central, North West and North east....Know this and know peace Asiwaju played a well organized politics which you people are new to and he is the president elect of this country......if not with the help of BVAS, do you know the number of votes Asiwaju will bring from the North and South west but INEC played a very good role in this election which Nigerians need to commend their efforts

Dot circle thinking!!!!!!

INEC was never ready to give Nigerians a free, effective and creditable election...
They just wasted 300 Billion naira...
Tax payers money...

Seun did not ask some vital questions from festus Okoye. questions like:
1.Why did INEC refused LP access to the electoral materials as directed by the court?
2. Why did the technical glitches affect only the uploading of the presidential results but did not affect the uploading of the National assembly results.

So it can be reconfigure so fast, but can't work faster.

Who else believes whatever comes from INEC Nigeria?
An electoral commission which declared a candidate to become president-elect while the results of the election were yet to arrive on its iREV portal; contrary to the regulation it earlier established for the election?

I didn't read your comment before I submitted mine above.
There may be truth in the allegations that Mahmood Yakubu merely used aged Tinubu as front to renew the tenure of Buhari cabal, his kinsmen, in Aso Rock.

I really don't understand what the noise is all about.
I'm sure the major political parties have collated their own results by now through their various agents at all the polling units. Was it different from what INEC announced?
Let us see your"actual" results for God's sake or better still head to the court and do the needful. Why all the insults and castigations?
Or maybe we are beginning to realize that Tinubu actually won and are just trying to demarket INEC by all means.
If we love this country, we need to move on.
And for those of you that will quote me to spew trash, I don't like Tinubu and I voted against him.
